Mr. Brumpi Rides A Horse
by Antonio Garza
Mr. Brumpi, a little gnome that lives in a tree by the sea,
saw humans riding horses one day, while drinking herb tea.
"Mr. Tuddles, I wonder what it feels like to ride a horse?"
"It would probably be exhilarating to ride a beast of such power and force,"
answered his friend the caterpillar, as he followed them along their course.
"It would take discipline and determination to control such a beast,
and he stands five gnomes high, at the very least."
"I don't think it matters whether an animal is big or small,
showing them proper respect is most important of all.
Besides that, trust is another important thing,
once granted, you can make even the most stubborn of songbirds sing."
"You're right Mr. Tuddles, I do agree,
trust and respect is the right philosophy."
They strolled to the stables, that warm summer night,
riding a horse they wished, under the beautiful moonlight.
"Mr. Horse, with stunning black hide and standing so tall,
I respectfully request to ride you, if it's no trouble at all."
"I grant your request, my little gnome friend,
but you must hang on tight, or it could be your end."
"I understand what you're saying, and I will abide,
to all of your rules, with which you guide.
"Mr. Tuddles and I, will cling on tight,
falling from your height, would be quite a fright."
"Climb on to my back with the help from that sack,
I promise this night, excitement it will not lack."
Mr. Brumpi did as was told,
the horse's mane he did have a hold,
and unto the beach they rode out,
with all the excitement, he just had to shout out.
"It feels exhilarating, feeling this wind on my face,
and hearing your hooves pounding the sand out of place.
I can easily see why, your kind are so revered,
your impressive nature, is why you were reared."
"I thank you for your complement, it is always nice to see and hear,
respectful behavior, which leads to new friends you hold near and dear.
But I hate to disappoint you, my little gnome friend?
It is getting quite late and this ride must come to an end."
"We appreciate your time and your kindness with us tonight.
This unique experience, was a true delight."
"Comeback anytime, you want to feel the wind graze your face,
I will gladly grant your request, for another ride upon this place."
Mr. Brumpi and Mr. Tuddles again, thanked the stunning black horse,
for their nocturnal ride, for which they have no remorse.
Mr. Brumpi looked unto the beach, and reflected on the day,
"By showing proper respect, we made a new friend today.
With respect we built trust,
and to maintain a friend, trust is a must."
The End
